I think you can get the same sort of look from one or the other--to me it's the feel that is different. The harlequine is more formal to me, precise, and the print is more distressed and gentle. Kind of the dieeferce between a formal English garden and a little cottage garden, both pretty, both flowers. I do think you could use either to get the job done, but there will be a subtle difference that really is there, despite the sublteness. No, I am not crazy
